I knew him by Kym Tachibana which I think is his real name but who knows what he is going by now?!? He trained with my garage group off and on for about a year or so. However, once we combined with Power Team (now Marra Senki BJJ) he went his own way.

As far as him being an Assistant MMA instructor for Team Tabmoc in an official capacity...NOPE! Like I said, he did train with us and he did work (spar/roll) with one of our active fighters at the time. This was because of his lighter weight and he did have a blue belt skill level in grappling. But he never cornered any of our fighters or was more than a training partner for any of them.

Once we parted ways he did rent a small facility here in San Antonio (which I think his parents paid for). I think he called it "The Dojo" but not sure. It was only open for a few months and I was told he had a handful of students at most. I deployed to Iraq at the time and when I came back I was told by one of our team members that he moved away from San Antonio. I think he moved to Austin for awhile and then to Houston.

As far as the rest of his resume...I couldn't tell you what is factual and what is not.
The only official MMA Coaches for Team Tabmoc at the time were the following:

Myself - currently coach MMA at Marra Senki BJJ (www.marrajj.com)
Rudy Hernandez - Current owner of the Spartan Pit (www.spartanpit.com)
Wally Herrera - Not currently training but he ran training in my absence while I was deployed and helped corner fighters.

Yeah, the Pro Fighter thing is the only thing I give him credit for. He initially was called out for making Bullshido claims regarding his training, went silent for a few years, and then showed back up after having actually fought.

Everyone thinks he fought a jobber who sucked. he also is apparently rich enough to go fight in thailand and train at the tourist martial artist camp. He hasnt fought in the U.S. in MMA or any kickboxing though. Wonder why. He has acrobatic talent though and is athletic but still...he is still making bullshido claims.

"During my college years I was in unsanctioned challenge matches to test my skills, unofficially I am undefeated in about 10 matches. Post college I was on the BJJ and MMA competition team, I competed in BJJ. I worked a dangerous security job and lived in really bad neighborhoods, I was in many altercations but I was always able to prevent or avoid any street fights."

"The next thing I want to talk about is my purpose, my goal on Youtube is to present solo training material so that students can develop good body mechanics. I am not making any claims that a student will be able to fight well, or survive a street altercation. Even though I personally developed my own style for the street and have used it many times to survive street altercations, it worked for me personally because of my background and many other factors.

For me to say watch my videos and practice the Heaven 6 and you will be able to defend yourself on the street is silly, there is no style that can make such a guarantee period, and solo training is simply not enough. I've had street experience living in bad neighborhoods, experience working a rough security job, BJJ competition experience, a ton of sparring experience in various styles, unsanctioned challenge matches, and even a few fights in high school."
